What Is a “Growers-Only” Market?

A “growers only” market is just what the name implies. Every item that is sold at this type of market must be grown or produced/made by the vendor who is selling them. Farmers grow a variety of livestock and crops. This can produce meat products, eggs, cheese, or any animal-based product. Individuals who bake pies, bread, salsas, sauces, jams, cookies, etc., can sell anything they produce as long as it is allowed by “cottage” laws.

The History of West Chester Growers Market

West Chester Growers Market was first established in 1995. Many local orchards and farms came together to sell their items at the market. The goal was to provide local, West Chester County residents with the freshest, highest quality produce and food products available. They also had another goal. The producers wanted to meet their customers. The farmers would bring their families, just as the customers brought theirs. Getting to know one another allowed both sides to come together and learn from one another.
